Chapter 64: The Dark Kingdom Comes to Ask for the Moon
Seeing such a scene, Allen made an immediate decision, raised his right hand, and pulled hard in his direction.
Soon, the high priest Delphi who fell to the ground flew up out of thin air as if being grabbed by an invisible hand, and then landed in front of Allen and Isabella, avoiding the arrival of the angel Uriel.
A fatal blow.
At this time, the high priest Delphi completely fainted due to excessive blood loss.
At the same time, Uriel, the descending angel, also noticed Allen's existence because of Allen's actions.
He raised the flaming giant sword in his hand high and pointed it at Allen.
Perhaps because of the strong coercion of this flaming giant sword, the soldiers blocking Allen, whether they were from the Iron-Blooded Grand Duke's army or under the command of King Charles II of the Greyhawk Kingdom, all retreated to both sides.
Make way for the middle road.
And Uriel's golden eyes also fell on Allen coldly.
"Elijah Phoenix," Uriel's voice suddenly sounded in Allen's mind, "You are finally here. I thought you were a coward who only dared to hide behind believers."
Allen smiled lightly and didn't take it seriously at these sarcastic words.
To be honest, Allen feels that his emotional state is very strange now. He was already burning with anger, and the volcano in his chest was about to erupt soon, but the crater seemed to be blocked by ice, and he acted extremely calm, as if
All the things happening in front of me have nothing to do with me.
He just put his hands on his chest and clenched his fists gently. Black mist emerged and condensed into a two-handed giant sword in front of him.
Except for the color, this sword is exactly the same as the flaming giant sword in Uriel's hand.
A flame rises, and a black mist surrounds it.
Obviously, this was a naked provocation from Allen to Uriel.
Seeing this situation, Uriel sneered, with a mocking expression on his face.
Then, he took a few steps forward, raised his heavy sword again, and struck hard at Allen.
Allen crossed the black epee and blocked the heavy blow.
But at the same time, the black mist also faded a bit, and it was obvious that Allen spent a lot of money in the process of resisting.
In this round, he clearly felt the terrifying strength of Uriel, the descending angel with the divinity of the Goddess of Light. Even if he was suppressed by the rules of the plane, he was not comparable to Allen.
Therefore, Allen understood that if he continued to fight like this, he would definitely lose.
And the believers of the Dark Temple, after his failure, will also be massacred one-sidedly by the other party.
If all the believers die in this battle, then Allen's life will come to an end because he loses the support of the power of faith.
This was the first real life-and-death crisis that Allen encountered after escaping from the dream world.
However, he only thought about it for a few seconds before making an immediate decision.
"Why don't you retreat quickly!" He turned his head and shouted to the followers of the Dark Temple headed by Saint Isabella.
At the same time, the black giant sword in Allen's hand disappeared and transformed into a black light curtain again, like an invisible wall, temporarily blocking Uriel's attack.
"But Sir Messenger, you are alone..." Isabella looked at him nervously, as if she wanted to step forward to help.
But Allen interrupted her rudely: "This is an order."
Supporting this light curtain almost exhausted all of Allen's strength, causing him to feel a strong sense of exhaustion. However, when he said these words, his face was calm and his tone was stern, as if to prevent an angel from descending from him.
It seems to be a very easy thing.
Hearing Allen's words, Isabella glanced at him with a complicated mood, then called the fat Ariel and knight Refant next to her, supported the unconscious high priest Delphi, and headed towards the camp behind the battlefield.
Go.
"The messenger is the conveyor of the will of the great God of Darkness," Isabella thought silently in her mind on the way back. "He will definitely defeat the enemy smoothly and come back safe and sound."
As ever before, Isabella had great confidence in Allen, sometimes to the point of almost blind obedience.
But today, she couldn't help but think of what Allen said in the city lord's palace in Salos City, "Messengers... are also human beings."
Messengers are just mortals.
So does this mean that the messenger may also be defeated?
Thinking of this, Isabella became even more worried, and her heartbeat began to accelerate.
When she was halfway there, she even wanted to turn around and go back to see the envoy's situation, but because she was supporting the unconscious Delphi and followed by the remaining followers of the Dark Temple, she did not look back in the end.
…………
"Elijah Phoenix, I didn't expect you to be such a mother-in-law." When Allen tried his best to support the black light curtain, the descending angel "God's Flame" Uriel was still wielding the burning giant sword without mercy.
He mocked face to face, "Let me tell you clearly! It is completely useless for you to buy time for these believers. You will definitely be defeated in my hands in the end. When you die, I will kill them one by one."
Kill.
"But if you are willing to hand over the power of darkness obediently, I can spare their lives, and you can also choose a comfortable way to die.
"..."
Allen knew that this angel started to quarrel with him because it was difficult to break through his black light curtain. He didn't know what the goddess of light thought at the beginning, and she was willing to use her divinity to create such a mean-mouthed angel.
The best way to deal with this kind of person is to completely ignore him and pretend he doesn't exist.
So, Allen stood quietly, trying to support the black light curtain with his divine power, completely ignoring what Uriel said.
When Isabella and the believers she led disappeared from the end of sight, Allen finally removed the light curtain tiredly and faced Uriel once again.
Uriel still had a sarcastic smile on his lips and a disdainful attitude in his eyes, as if he didn't think Allen had a chance to defeat him.
But this time, Allen was not in a hurry to use the black mist to condense weapons and fight against this descending angel.
Instead, he closed his eyes, opened his arms, and silently recited the incantation in the memory fragment in his heart.
He clearly felt that the divine power in his body was being consumed rapidly, and he soon felt like it was about to be exhausted.
But he didn't take it seriously and continued to recite the incantation silently by overdrawing his divine power.
After a while, the sky suddenly darkened. The blood-red sunset disappeared, and the sky was shrouded in pitch-black night.
The wind was howling and the dust was flying, creating an apocalyptic scene.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Uriel, the descending angel, showed a surprised look for the first time.
Because in that black sky, he could vaguely glimpse the barren wilderness, lifeless swamps, and dilapidated ruins...
Although it was a lifeless world, Uriel felt strong fear from that world.
Because he felt that the rules of that world were completely unfamiliar and he knew nothing about them. If he arrived in that world, he might not be able to use even the most basic powers.
It's like a wrestler who is completely unable to display his strength in a weightless environment.
Uriel stared at Allen and said angrily: "Do you know the consequences of doing this?"
Allen smiled slightly, and a drop of bright red blood oozed from the corner of his mouth: "Uriel, welcome to my kingdom of God!"
